Beyond Technology
While technology is my passion, I believe in maintaining a well-rounded life. Here are some things I enjoy outside of work:
Cybersecurity
Diving deep into ethical hacking, reverse engineering, and securing digital ecosystems. Constantly learning, breaking, and fixing things — responsibly.
Full Stack Development
Building cool stuff from frontend to backend. I love turning ideas into scalable apps, and making clean, performant, maintainable code.
Mentorship
Helping others level up in tech, cybersecurity, and life. I genuinely enjoy guiding beginners and sharing what I’ve learned the hard way.
Writing
From tech blogs to personal reflections — I write to express, document, and connect. Writing is how I teach myself and others.
Gaming
From strategy to story-driven games, gaming keeps my mind sharp and my creativity flowing. A great way to reset.
Music
Music fuels my mood and focus. Whether it’s lo-fi while coding or something intense during a workout, I’m always tuned in.
Exploring Nature
Stepping away from screens to reconnect with nature. Walks, hikes, sunsets — they all help me reflect and recharge.
Learning in Public
Documenting my journey, sharing wins and fails alike. Growth mindset > perfection. Always experimenting, always shipping.
